5-alpha reductase deficiency
type: Concept
issued: 2019-05-14

replaces: 5AlphaReductaseDeficiency
comment: People with 5-alpha reductase deficiency, abbreviated as 5-ARD, have XY chromosomes, testes, and typical levels of testosterone, but their bodies do not have the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to the more powerful androgen dihydrotestosterone (DHT). This affects how an individual's external sex characteristics develop, and people born with 5-ARD often have genital differences that are noticed at birth. In adolescence, people with 5-ARD typically develop some features associated with testosterone puberty, and they may experience genital growth at this point.

Androgen insensitivity syndrome
type: Concept
issued: 2019-05-14
modified: 2025-02-23
replaces: androgenInsensitivitySyndrome
comment: People born with AIS have XY chromosomes and testes, and their bodies have varying levels of insensitivity to androgens (including testosterone). This means that their cells do not respond typically to the testosterone that they produce. Like other variations in sex characteristics, AIS is a spectrum, with the subcategories of complete (CAIS), partial (PAIS), and mild androgen insensitivity (MAIS). The term "male androgen insensitivity syndrome" should not be used to describe this variation because many people with AIS are women.

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia
type: Concept
issued: 2019-05-14
modified: 2025-02-23
replaces: congenitalAdrenalHyperplasia
comment: Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a group of different but related genetic variations that affect the enzymes that allow the adrenal glands to make hormones that regulate the body’s functions. People with CAH do not consistently produce the amount of cortisol or aldosterone they need, but they may naturally produce higher-than-typical levels of androgens such as testosterone to help the body compensate. Someone with CAH can be born with XX or XY chromosomes. People with CAH and XY chromosomes are usually not considered to have a variation in sex characteristics since an increased amount of androgens will not cause the development of any characteristics that are not considered typical for people assigned male at birth. In people with XX chromosomes and CAH, the increase in androgen production can result in genital differences such as a larger-than-typical clitoris, fused labia, and the fusion of the urethra and vaginal canal to form a single opening. They may also develop some characteristics like body and facial hair or increased muscle mass during childhood or puberty.

comment: Agencies that serve to connect paying clients with escorts offering services by appointment. Escort services may be less stigmatized than other forms of sex work, in part because it tends to be safer for escorts and because some escorts offer a broader range of services, including accompaniment or entertainment without the promise of sexual contact. However, the tendency to frame escorting as separate from or superior to other forms of sex work obscures the labor undertaken by escorts and perpetuates discrimination against the most marginalized and vulnerable sex workers.

In "distal hypospadias," the urinary opening is elsewhere on the glans (head) of the penis, whereas in "proximal hypospadias," it is on the underside of the penis and sometimes further back near the scrotum. Hypospadias is one of the most common and visible genital variations. People with hypospadias often have additional variations like chordee (a bend in the penis) or cryptorchidism (undescended testicles).

comment: People with Klinefelter syndrome develop with an extra copy of the X chromosome, resulting in a 47XXY pattern (instead of the typical 46XY). These individuals might have smaller-than-typical testes that produce lower amounts of testosterone and/or sperm, and they may start puberty later than typical (or may not go through puberty without hormone therapy). They may grow taller than usual, may develop breast tissue, and often experience infertility. This variation often does not cause obvious physical differences, and many people do not realize they have it.

Consists of groups and organizations of men and their allies working to address gender issues and their impact on men. Different men's movement groups vary significantly in how they frame their relationship to the women's movement and society at large. Not to be confused with the men's or father's rights movement, which focuses on perceived inequalities faced by men and seeks to maintain patriarchal values.

Mosaicism involving "sex" chromosomes
type: Concept
issued: 2019-05-14
modified: 2025-02-23
replaces: mosaicismInvolvingSexChromosomes
comment: People with mosaic chromosomes have different chromosome patterns in some cells of their body than in others. Mosaicism results from random differences in how cells divide while an embryo is growing, resulting in different numbers of chromosomes in different cells (such as 45X/46XX or 45X/46XY, which are both variants of Turner syndrome, or 46XY/47XXY or 46XX/47XXY, which are both variants of Klinefelter syndrome). If someone specifically has 46XX chromosomes in some cells and 46XY in others, their variation is probably chimerism instead of mosaicism. Having mosaic chromosomes can cause someone to develop variations in their genitals, gonads, or hormone function. For example, if they have at least one Y chromosome, they may have both ovarian and testicular tissue, or genital differences like hypospadias, or they may develop some secondary sex characteristics at puberty that are not expected for the sex they were assigned. People who have mosaicism without a Y chromosome (e.g., 45X/46XX, or 46XX/47XXX) may have streak gonads or ovaries that stop functioning at an earlier age than typical, which can affect development during puberty and fertility. Other people may not have any noticeable signs of their mosaicism at all.

type: Concept

comment: People with this variation are born with both ovarian and testicular tissue. A person can develop one testis and one ovary, or they may develop one or more ovo-testes, which means that a single gonad is made up of both ovarian and testicular cells. The levels of hormones they produce can vary and how their genitals and secondary sex characteristics develop will depend partially on the levels of estrogen and testosterone that their bodies make. In adolescence, people with ovo-testes may develop features associated with either a typical estrogen puberty or a typical testosterone puberty, or they may develop some of each. Sometimes a person with an ovary and a testis or with ovo-testes can produce viable sperm and viable eggs.

type: Concept

comment: People with partial androgen insensitivity (PAIS) have some response to testosterone, but not as much as is typical for people with XY chromosomes without androgen insensitivity. People with PAIS may be born with testes that are undescended or partially descended and with genital differences such as a vaginal opening that is shallower than typical, a phallus that may be perceived as a large clitoris or a small penis, and variations affecting their urethra. They might also be born with genitals that look more like a penis or like a vulva and vagina. In adolescence, people with PAIS may develop some features that are associated with a typical testosterone puberty and others that are associated with a typical estrogen puberty since their body responds to some of the testosterone that their gonads produce while the rest is converted into estrogen.

Police entrapment
type: Concept
issued: 2019-05-14
modified: 2025-02-23
replaces: policeEntrapment
comment: A practice in which law enforcement agents or agents of the state coerce an individual to commit a "crime" they would have otherwise been unlikely or unwilling to commit. Legal definitions of entrapment vary widely depending on the jurisdiction, but the term is often used colloquially to refer to police acting dishonestly or in bad faith, as well as policing focused on anticipating and inducing crime, rather than responding to reports of crime.

Progestin induced virilization
type: Concept
issued: 2019-05-14
modified: 2025-02-23
replaces: progestinInducedVirilization
comment: People born with progestin-induced virilization have XX chromosomes and may have visible genital variations at birth such as a larger-than-typical clitoris, sometimes also with fused or partially fused labia. They usually have a typical uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes, though their vagina may or may not have differences. This variation develops in utero as a result of the individual's parent taking progestin medication while pregnant. Being exposed to these additional hormones before birth can change how someone’s genitals develop, but it generally will not change how their own body will produce or respond to hormones later on. This means that someone born with progestin-induced virilization will usually develop features associated with a typical estrogen puberty.

Due to difficulties obtaining hot pink fabric and a desire for an even number of stripes, Baker modified his design in 1979 to contain six colors. The six-color version of the flag has been the most popular design since then.

Swyer syndrome
type: Concept
issued: 2019-05-14

comment: Swyer syndrome occurs when a person is born with XY chromosomes, but their gonads have not developed into testes. It is a form of gonadal dysgenesis, meaning that a person with this variation will have streak gonads that do not produce hormones. Since they do not produce testosterone, their body does not develop a penis and usually develops a vulva and vagina instead. Since they do not produce another hormone known as anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), people with Swyer syndrome often develop a uterus and fallopian tubes as well. They will not usually start puberty or begin menstruating, but some people with Swyer syndrome do menstruate (without ovulating) if they receive estrogen therapy.

comment: Individuals who transition from female to male or male to female. Generally refers to individuals who transition their physical bodies to align with their gender identities. Though this term was popular in the 20th century and is still in use today, it has been largely replaced by "transgender people" and "trans people." Some but not all people regard this term as outdated and offensive. Only use to describe people who self-identify as transsexual.

comment: Turner syndrome is a variation in which a person is born with a 45X chromosome pattern (sometimes called 45XO) rather than the typical 46XX. People with Turner syndrome often share specific physical features such as short stature, a webbed neck and broad chest, and heart issues. They can also develop variations in their other sex characteristics, such as smaller-than-typical ovaries that may stop producing hormones at a younger age than typical, and they might not menstruate or experience pubertal changes.

Hermaphrodites
type: Concept
issued: 2022-02-14
modified: 2025-02-23
comment: A term originating from Greek mythology that refers to beings that are both fully female and fully male. The term was once adopted in the medical realm to describe people with intersex variations generally (and later to describe someone with both ovarian and testicular tissue specifically), but it is now recognized to be stigmatizing, imprecise, and misleading. Many people in the intersex community consider the use of this term to be pathologizing and deeply offensive, while other intersex people have chosen to reclaim the term to describe themselves and their bodies. Do not use this term to describe an individual unless they explicitly identify with it and have chosen to use it.

comment: Sex workers whose clients are required to make appointments for their services. Unlike sex workers who solicit clients on the street or in institutions like brothels, escorts typically advertise their services online, whether independently or through agencies. Escorting may be less stigmatized than other forms of sex work, in part because it tends to be safer for escorts and because some escorts offer a broader range of services, including accompaniment or entertainment without the promise of sexual contact. However, the tendency to frame escorting as separate from or superior to other forms of sex work obscures the labor undertaken by escorts and perpetuates discrimination against the most marginalized and vulnerable sex workers.

comment: A spelling of "woman" or "women" that first appeared in print in 1976 and is used in certain feminist circles to avoid having the suffix of "men."

Slurs
type: Concept
issued: 2020-06-03
modified: 2025-02-23
replaces: slurs
comment: Insulting or discriminating remarks, innuendos, or names intended to demoralize a person, typically by disparaging that person's identity or social group. Generally, for a term to be considered a slur, it must be derogatory towards a particular person or group, it must be used to subordinate them within some structure of power relations, and the derogated person or group must be defined by an intrinsic property such as their race, sexual orientation, gender identity, etc. This category includes terms considered slurs at any point in their usage. Therefore, some of these terms may no longer be considered universally derogatory, may be in common usage, or may be selectively reclaimed by certain groups.

Sex (Body)
type: Concept

replaces: sexBody
comment: The category assigned to an individual to describe their body and its role in sexual reproduction, usually based on external anatomy, but also including chromosomes, gene expression, hormones, and internal and external reproductive/sexual organs. Although sex is often described as binary, it exists as a spectrum with significant variation in the biological attributes that comprise sex and the way it is defined in different cultural contexts.

Gender
type: Concept
issued: 2019-05-14
modified: 2025-02-23
replaces: gender
comment: A socially constructed system that gives meaning to masculinity and femininity and that unevenly distributes power and opportunity according to cultural interpretations of sex. As an element of personal identity, a gender is developed through the interaction of social roles and expectations, one’s response to those expectations, one’s physiology, and one’s internal sense of self. Gender is culturally specific, meaning that different cultures have different understandings of what gender means and how many genders should be recognized.
